so after justin frankel has already: Made media playback rock with winamp Made streaming media rock with shoutcast and NSV Revolutionised peer2peer software (gnutella) Made WASTE ('nuff said) Made an installer system that doesn't suck (nsis) and other smaller projects (jnetlib, safesex, mlipod, plush, etc etc)
Most universities in the UK only offer one of these, and the courses are almost identical in content. The main difference being if you end up with a BSc or a BEng, and to an employer this difference matters a lot less than the class of degree obtained.
Winamp 5 is nearing release, and these layoffs (as regrettable as they are) will not effect the Winamp 5 release.
The nullsoft members who were laid off were working on streaming media.
I believe that with the advent of winamp pro (for full speed cd ripping and burning and mp3 encoding) which will cost a small amount of $. We will see winamp having a steady revenue stream that will hopefully keep the core winamp team safe.
But stay with me.

I think your missing the point of WASTE.
WASTE is designed for secure communications (IM, chat and file transfer) between small groups of trusted users.
Bittorrent, Kazaa etc are designed for the mass distribution of files amongst people you don't know.
The only similarities are that neither use a central server, and they can be used to transfer files. But how many protocols can't transfer files?
